According to one image, the grip safety area has not been filled in, but the grip safety is obviously missing.

I notice that the stock lug is not for a push button stock because I do not see any notch on the outer edge. Ron, your comments would be welcome on this point.

The '1', '2' and '5' at various locations have nothing to do with the serial number and I have observed similar numbers on other early Lugers. Probably it has something to do with an assembly line or an inspector. Also notice the 'good old flaming bomb proof' just under the chamber!

It is unfortunate that the barrel is removed or missing as well as the finish having been affected by the use of an improper protecting product. Apparently, the straw is strong on various parts which is inconsistent to the quality of the blue which demonstrates that a wrong product was applied to the pistol.

Hopefully, with the right steps, the pistol could be returned to its original configuration and properly restored.

Cheers,
Albert
